## Build environment

    # apt-get install arduino-builder arduino

..then use the Arduino IDE to install the 3rd-party esp8266.com SDK,
using the Preferences->Additional Boards Manager URL:
http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json ...and
then adding the esp8266com devkit with Tools->Boards->Board Manager.

If that's too much bother, it should still work as a normal Sketch
in the Arduino IDE, with the RadioHead library, and the additional
kiss-related source added.

To test:

    $ kissutil -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 9600

(kissutil is included with direwolf)

    "[0] DEBUG0-1>IDENT:Radio init success"

...should appear, otherwise, beacons from the Digipeater can also
show up:

    "[0] FL0RA-1>BEACON:T#1,15,0,6"

To play with the digipeater:

    $ kissutil -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 9600 \
            -f /var/spool/packet/send -o /var/spool/packet/recv 

    $ echo "VK2CJB>FL0RA-1:ping" >/var/spool/packet/send/test

    "[0] FL0RA-1>VK2CJB:ping RSSI=-56 PktRpts=0"
    
AX.25 limits callsigns/addresses to 6 upperalphas and numerics (and an
optional "-SSID" digit). But since we're not in the Amateur space,
just pick anything unique...

This is obviously just a preliminary serial-connected version, todo is
the network stuff.

Another (possible..) future addition is adding the Digipeater
functionality to the 'regular' TNC-- making it so every user's site
can forward packets.
